Abstract

The fiber-optical scanner (30) has an array (9) of individual light conductors, which are arranged at an end (90) in an image plane of a collimation optic (8). A central light conductor (120) is divided in two coaxial cross section areas. The central cross section area (120a) conducts the transmission light. An independent claim is also included for a distance image camera with scan unit.
